[Bb]
[G]
I remember when I was [C] a little girl when our house caught on fire.
[Em] I'll never forget the [Bb] look on my [Em] father's face as he [C] gathered me in his arms and rushed
to the burning building on the pavement.
[F] And I stood there [C] shivering in my pajamas, [G]
watched the whole world go up in [C] flames.
[F]
And when it was all over, [C] I said to myself,
[Bb] Is that all there is to a fire?
Is that [G] all there [F] is?
[Em] [Dm] Is that [G] all there is?
[Dm] If that's [G] all there is, my friends, [Dm] [G] then let's [C] keep [Cm] dancing.
Let's [A] break [F] out of [Cm] booze [Bb] and [Ebm] have [Bb] [Dm] a ball.
[Bb] If [A] that's all
[Eb] there [D] is.
[Bb] [C] And [Cm] when I was twelve [Ebm] years old, my daddy [Bb] took me to [Eb] the circus, [Cm] the greatest show on earth.
[Eb] There were clowns and elephants [Cm] and dancing bears,
[Eb] and a beautiful lady in pink [Bb] tights flew high above our heads.
[Cm]
[Eb] [Ebm] [Eb] [Cm] But as I sat [G] there watching, I had [Eb] the feeling that [Bb] something was [Cm] missing.
I don't [Eb] know what, but when it was all over, I said to [Bb] myself,
Is that all there is to the [Eb] circus?
Is [Dm] that all there is?
Is that [G] all there is?
[Dm] If that's all there [Bbm] is, my [F] friends,
[G] then let's [C] keep [Cm] dancing.
[F] Let's break [Fm] out of [Cm] booze [Bb] and [Ebm] have [Dm] a [Bb] ball.
[Dm] If [Em] that's [E] all
[Eb] [Am] there is.
[D] [Bb] [Cm] [Eb] And then I fell in [Ebm] love with the most [Cm] [G] wonderful boy in the [Eb] world.
[Ebm] We'd take [Gm] long walks down by the river, just
[Ebm] sit for [Bb] hours, gazing into each other's eyes.
We were so very much in love.
[Eb] And then [Ebm] one day, he went [Bb] away and [Eb] I thought I'd die.
[Ebm]
But I [Gm] didn't.
And when I [Ebm] didn't, I said to myself,
[Dm] Is that all there is to [Bb] love?
Is [F] that all [G] there is?
Is that all there is?
If [F] that's all [G] there is, my [Bbm] friend,
[F] [G] then I [Eb] know what you [Ebm] must be saying [Cm] to yourselves.
[Eb] If that's the way she [Ebm] feels about it, why doesn't she [Gm] just end it all?
[Ebm] Oh, [Bb] no, [Dm] not me.
I'm not ready for [Bb] that final disappointment.
[Cm] [Eb] Because I know, [C] just as [Bb] well as I'm [Eb] standing here talking [Ebm] to you,
that when that final moment [Gm] comes,
and [Ebm] I'm breathing my last breath,
[Dm] I'll be saying to myself,
[Bb] Is [G] that all there is?
[Dm] Is that all there is?
If [G] that's all there is, my friends,
[F] then [B] let's [C] keep [Cm]
dancing.
[F] Let's break out the [Eb] booze [F] and [Bb] [B] have [Bb] a ball.
[A] If that's [Db]
all [Eb] [D] there [G] [Gm]
is.
[G]
